      Pros

      You get to work with a specialist subject you are passionate about.

      Cons

      Management view employees as assets and are happy to see them worked into the ground, as long as magazines go to print on time. There is no respect for experience or ability, only what difference the staff make to the bottom line. Truly awful. Management does not share the workforce's passion for their subjects, leading to some incredibly bad decisions at the top level. It's no wonder their titles are in rapid decline. Having now sold of many titles (including profitable ones, for some reason!), Future are in their death throes. Avoid.

      Pros

      shiny looking website they spent an exuberant amount of money on

      Cons

      They exploit their employees ferociously. If you love yourself or your life - do not work for this company. Clients - don't sign up! They do programs and pretend it's custom. They spend hundreds of thousands to hire new shiny CEOs but pay their coaches around $40k/year to maintain 100 clients. You are not special - they just put up a lot of metrics to pretend to make you feel that way. No coach can actually connect with 100 clients and write a personalized program. That's why the "management" pushes coaches to use as many templates as they can. They do big lay offs of any coaches who don't want to maintain 100+ people. They also are actively working to use any/all Apple Watch data to sell and use in any way they can monetize. So DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR APPLE WATCH DATA. It's smoke and mirrors and not anything actually useful (especially for the pricepoint they are asking!)
